crete ilab. It must also be equip
ped with a vent.
As if these were not obstacles
enough, one gas company official
reported Tuesday he had been
informed that ruling will be
aimed at would-be barrel cus
tomers. It will prohibit a sta
tion operator from selling to
customer for barrel storage if
. thai customer heretofore has not
been buying gasoline in that
manner.
Fred Hamilton, Shell Oil man
ager, said that some protest had
been made in vain against in
cluding Klamath Falls, Medf ord
and Lakeview in the northwest
rationing area. He said that
these communities get their gas
oline by tank car from Califor
nia, and not by tanker through
the northern ports. Inasmuch
as the;- are not affected by the
tanker situation, it is argued
they should have been grouped
with northern California in a
non-rationing area.
No rationing has been ordered
for northern California, and pre
sumably there will be no re
strictions on the supply at Tule
lake, Dorris or other nearby
California towns.

BATAAN HERO
N AUSTRALIA
AT NEW POST
(Continued From Pago One)
supreme commander in the
southwest Pacific was British
General Sir Archibald Wavell,
whose reassignment to command
in India was announced on
March 2.
At that time, no mention was
made officially ot the possibility
that MacArthur would succeed
him, although Australian sources
had suggested MacArthur from
time to time.
Wavell's reassignment to In
dia was explained as a result of
the loss of Malaya and the entry
of the Japanese into Sumatra,
separating Burma from the
Netherlands East Indies. The
transfer of all land, sea and air
forces in the Netherlands Indies
to the command of tho Dutch
was announced, but no reference
was made to a supreme United
Nations command in the south
west Pacific area.
It now develops that MacArth
ur already had been ordered to
Australia, but today's announce
ment made no reference to Ir.
dia or Burma, and there was no
immediate indication whether
MacArthur'i command extend
ed to them.
TO FOREGO STRIKES

of the national war labor board.
The two top men In organized
labor, discussing by turns the
parley with the chief executive,
gave a picture of satisfactory
production of war materials with
labor devoting every force and
effort to turning out war sup
plies. Murray said it was agreed that
"voluntary action on the part of
labor to yield its right to strike
was a more satisfactory answer
to the problem of production
and national unity than restric
tive enactments by the federal
congress."
Green remarked that "it was
agreed that the 40-hour week
shall be recognized as standard,
that time and a half should be
paid for overtime and double
time for Sunday."
It was left undecided, he add
ed, whether double time would
be paid only for work on the
Sabbath, or whether it would be
paid for a seventh day of work.
regardless of what day of the
week that might be.

he felt that it Is asking too much
from the people of the city at
mis time.
"We shouldn't offer an 8-mllI

our intentions are right, said
Mayor Houston. "Wo should of

Councilman Rollin Cantrall,
chairman of the fire committee,
said that anything less than the
proposed $76,000 annually for
the fire department would be
Inadequate to "give you the kind

danger and Harvey Martin con
tended the council should place
the matter on the ballot. "Put It
up to the people, and if they vote
it down, we won't be blamed,''
said Wlesendanger. ,
The most outspoken opposi
tion came from City Attorney
Dayton Van Vactor. When asked
his opinion, ho said:
"If you ask for eight mills, as
a citizen and taxpayer I will
fight it as hard as I can."
Those participating in the dis
cussion decided the public would
be more likely to look with fa
vor upor tho 4-mlll levy plan
than on the 8-mlll scheme, al
though it was admitted they
were in effect the same.
No Budgetary Control
It was felt, for one thing, that
people would understand the 4
mill plan better. It also Is some
what more elastic, in that it
would leave the council and
budget committee with the
power to reduce fire department
outlays under the budget. Under
the 8-mill proposition, there
would be no budgetary control
of the amount raised.
